<@jerith>
I don't suppose anyone here has played with ZigBee at all?
18:01
<@ToxicFrog>
Never even heard of it.
18:03
<@jerith>
It's a wireless comms standard.
18:03
<@jerith>
Not final yet, apparently.
18:03
<@jerith>
Low bitrate, low power.
18:04
<@jerith>
Lots of shiny ad-hoc networking stuff.
18:04
<@ToxicFrog>
Aah.
18:05
<@jerith>
I'm thinking about doing some hardware hacking again.

<@Consul>
So, I've been thinking about my career path, and what I'd really like to do...
23:18
<@Consul>
And lately, mainly thanks to you jerks :-), I've been getting interested in special-purpose software and programming languages, specifically for science and engineering.
23:19
<@Consul>
Now, I'm not a computer science major, but depending on what happens upon getting my first degree, going for a second might be possible.
23:24
<@Consul>
In short, I'm thinking about specializing in creating domain-specific programming languages and software for science and engineering.
23:24
<@Consul>
It does seem an area not really served all that well.
